Okay, just break it up so you're not overwhelming yourself or anything :)
So here, do it in steps-
Let's do 5(3 + t) first:
Distribute the 5, or in non-mathematical terms, just multiply 5 by 3 and t. This will give you 15 + 5t.
Now onto -3(t + 1):
Again, just multiply -3 by t and 1. This will come out to: -3t - 3.
*Note: the 3 is negative because it's "MINUS 3" in the original equation and remember that any number times a negative, if it isn't negative itself, will turn out to be negative.... (aka "-" x "-" = "+" | "+" x "+" = "+" | "-" x "+" = "-")*
ANYWAY
Now just put both answer together and you get:
15 + 5t -3t - 3. You can only add and minus the LIKETERMS (which are the things that are the same) - in this case, the liketerms are 15 and -3 ,,,, AND 5t and -3t.
15 - 3 = 12
5t - 3t = 2t
12 + 2t is your final answer. Hope that helps! :)
Answer:
Inverse Function: f^-1(x) = 9/4x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the inverse function we can interchange the position of the variables x and y, and then solve for y;
y = 4/9x - 4 => x = 4/9y - 4,
x = 4/9y - 4,
4/9y = x + 4,
y = 9/4x + 9/4(4),
y = 9/4x + 9/ f^-1(x) = 9/4x + 9
Answer:
The speed of the biker is 15
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you call the speed of the walker x, and the speed of the biker 2.5x.
Then you know that speed times time equals distance, so you set up and equation. You do x times 2, which is 2x, and then 2.5x times 2, which is 5x. Then, since the distance between them is 18 miles, the equation would be 5x-2x=18. You would get 3x=18, and x is 6. So 6 is the speed of the walker, and 6 times 2.5 = 15, so the speed of the biker is 15.
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Add all the numbers together
6+8+2.5+2.5+2=21
